What is your playing XI?

[icf1]

Since we're beaten comprehensively in the 2nd test i still believe changes is needed for a fitting reply. Even though we have three world class spinners, performance matters in the end...

The Official ICF XI come 5th Dec (for now):

Sehwag Rahane Pujara Tendulkar Kohli Tiwary Dhoni (c & wkt) Ashwin Ojha Zaheer Ishant

Note 1: If Rahane were to play in the middle order, then Gambhir comes in and Sachin would miss out. Though it is neck and neck between Sachin and Tiwary. Note 2: I must say I am surprised the faith ICFers have shown in "unlucky" Ishant.:hehe: Note 3: For now Dhoni seems to get the nod for his place (but just under 50% of votes), no doubt complicated by his captaincy.

^In the poll for middle order batsmen, the leading 4 are Pujara, Kohli, Rahane and Tiwary. Why is Tendu up there in your XI?

^In the poll for middle order batsmen' date=' the leading 4 are Pujara, Kohli, Rahane and Tiwary. Why is Tendu up there in your XI?[/quote'] Rahane also in the openers' list where he is in the top two, so it's between Gambhir and Tendulkar.
